维果茨基文化历史心理学中所展现的内部关系和辩证法的“舞蹈”步骤

Internal Relations and Dialectical Dance Steps in Vygotsky’s Cultural-Historical Psychology

本文以分析维果茨基文化历史心理学与马克思主义辩证法逻辑的联系为着眼点,旨在进一步促进文化历史心理学的理论发展和应用。虽然近些年来维果茨基心理学理论与马克思主义哲学的关系开始受到学者们关注,但是它们之间的联系,尤其在英语学术界,几十年来一直没有得到承认和重视。例如,Dafermos (2018)就强调,从辩证的角度重新思考文化历史心理学对避免理论误解有着重要意义。本文采用Ollman (2003, 2015)对马克思主义哲学核心内容的分析为主要框架:1)内在关系;2)马克思主义抽象的辩证步骤。通过对维果茨基已发表作品的文本、理论概念及方法等开展分析和讨论,从而论述马克思主义哲学作为文化历史心理学的哲学基础,以深化对维果茨基的理论理解和阐释。随后,本文引入文化历史心理学视阈下的二语习得实践研究(即SCT-SLA)为例证,进一步论证在文化历史心理学视域下,马克思主义哲学思想对应用语言学实践研究的影响。受限于本研究视野的局限性,期待能够抛砖引玉,有更多的同仁开展马克思主义哲学和维果茨基理论的相关研究,并以马克思主义哲学为指导进一步解决更多二语习得的相关问题。

The connection between Vygotsky’s Cultural-Historical Psychology(CHP)and the Marxist logic of dialectics is currently gaining focus to promote the development and application of Vygotsky’s psychological theory.However,their interconnection has not been recognized and appreciated to the extent that it deserves,especially in English academia.Dafermos(2018)has clarified the necessity for Vygotskians to rethink cultural-historical psychology from the dialectical perspective to avoid misconceptions.To call for more focus and to deepen theoretical understanding,this study analyzes the philosophical basis of Marxism in CHP by adopting the framework demonstrated by Ollman(2003,2015)in two connected aspects:1)internal relations and 2)the dialectical steps involved in abstraction in Marxism.Through analyzing Vygotsky’s texts and elaborating on the conceptual ideas and methodologies in CHP,it presents the connection between CHP and Marxism.Subsequently,it introduces the application of CHP in SLA studies,referred to as Sociocultural Theory-Second Language Acquisition(SCT-SLA),as further evidence to show the impact of Marxist philosophical ideas in practical studies of applied linguistics.Further studies on the relationship between Marxism and CHP,and studies adopting Marxist philosophy to solve SLA issues are encouraged.
